Yesterday I tried with voice instructions (just installed), the mapper software given me is little longer route to catch free way(i know this route comes from google, that is the reason i asked in my previous post saying how to use my custom route which is generated in google maps), so i took another shortcut route to high way. it is working fine with instructions when i started but in middle when i took different route it stopped giving me instruction (on display and voice), even my route is same from free way as mapper software gave me.
i didnt load return route because i know how to return. but in the middle of my return trip mapper software keep saying 'arrive at xxxxxx'. i know i confused mapper software by taking little off route in the middle of my journey, but my question is it normal behavior of mapper software or is it a bug?
Resetting the route doesn't affect the route itself - just how maemo mapper is tracking your progress along the route. If you travel off the route for an extended period, it is possible for Maemo Mapper to lose track of where you are on the route. The "Reset" functionality fixes this.

Yep lost a few hundred miles of data for openstreet maps over last few weeks.
Usually crashes out when saving, however to day no probs, changed my routine to saving same file name at short intervals throughout a 3 hour journey.
Perhaps it there was an auto save option...

My iTrek GPS is modified at 5Hz and works quite fine with Mapper : Mapper reveive correctly 5Hz signal for positionning but saves the track only at 1 Hz 
Mapper crashs sometimes when saving ; for OpenStreetMap mapping I manually save the track at the begin and every half hour.

Has anyone experience an issue with their Maemo Mapper (I have the N770) where after idling for awhile the screen turns white?
On my recent road trip that covered over 800 miles, any time I stopped at a gas station or rest area, my Maemo Mapper would be recording my trip (red line following the green line, route). When I got back into my car, the screen was white every time and each time I had to wait patiently for it to show the map again (over 5 minutes it seemed). Sometimes if I pressed a button the screen would show the map again, other times it wouldn't do anything.
Any ideas what may be causing this?

This happens to me all of the time also. Anyone know of a fix??
Thanks!

I wrote a small python script to import waypoints from a GPX file in to a POI db:
http://longstair.com/gpx_to_poi
It uses pysqlite2. I understand that maemo's python bundles pysqlite3, but I've been too lazy to check in to that, so for now, it won't run on maemo. I imagine it'd be trivial to convert to pysqlite3.
It's usage is simple. You give it a GPX file and an existing poi.db, and it inserts each waypoint in to the POI. Optionally, you may specify a category ID to insert the waypoints in. By default, the new waypoints are put in the 'other' category.
